- Synopsis
-
In richly detailed case studies, Kier examines doctrinal developments in France and Great Britain during the interwar period.
She tests her cultural argument against the two most powerful alternative explanations and illustrates that neither the functional needs of military organizations nor the structural demands of the international system can explain doctrinal choice. She also reveals as a myth the argument that the lessons of World War I explain the defensive doctrines in World War II.
